CS Wind responded to the publication of the final results of the review, saying Commerce failed to convert the company’s shutdown costs from Malaysian ringgit to South Korean won when calculating the revised cost of goods sold denominator used to calculate an expense rate. Commerce agreed.

When Commerce corrected the ministerial error, the rate for CS Wind Corporation and CS Wind Malaysia Sdn Bhd was lowered from 18.02% to 17.97%.

Commerce will calculate importer-specific rates for entries from CS Wind based on the new 17.97% AD rate. That new rate is applicable for cash deposit purposes beginning Aug. 13.
